Our helicopter tour was canceled due to weather. It is very difficult communicating with the company to get a refund! Very frustrating. Our Hummer tour was excellent!

Albert was a wonderful pilot! Informative and engaging. My first helicopter flight and it was wonderful. From check in through the entire experience it was smooth and friendly.

From start to finish one of the best Travel experiences we have ever done . There is only one way to truly see the Grand Canyon and that is from the air ! Pilot gave us a concise run through of the route and appropriate commentary as we explored the canyon and surrounding forest . Flight lasted 45 mins and for the money it was worth every cent . Plenty of room to take Photos/ Video .
